# Lysanthir and Lyrathra Velvetshadow
_Half-Elf Assassins | [[Gilded Gallows]] | [[Grand Dame]]_
## Summary
Eerily synchronized twin assassins with platinum blonde hair and golden eyes who served as elegant dance hosts aboard the [[Grand Dame]]. Their assassination attempt on [[Angel Lock]] during the Crimson Siege ended with [[Sister Garaele]] killing Lysanthir with Ray of Frost—which she immediately regretted. [[Petra]] positioned his corpse across from captured Lyrathra in a dark interrogation setup. After interrogation, Petra and Garaele used Modify Memory to plant false intelligence about seeking a weapon in the Anauroch Desert.

## At a Glance
Twin half-elves with willowy frames and platinum blonde hair, dressed in matching midnight blue with silver accents. Lysanthir had a faint scar by his right eye; Lyrathra wears a sapphire earring. Move with unsettling synchronicity, often finishing each other's sentences.
## Personality
Coldly professional, eerily coordinated. Predatory smiles that never reach their eyes. Primarily loyal to [[Khaspere Drylund]] over [[Gilded Gallows]] hierarchy.
## Quote
_"Shall we dance?" / "The music never stops."_ (spoken in unison)
## Background
Trained by the mysterious Madame Reverie before joining the [[Gilded Gallows]]. Used dance performances aboard the [[Grand Dame]] as cover for assassination missions. Worked alongside [[Pow Ming]] for security operations.
**Current Status:** Lysanthir is dead. Lyrathra is alive but captured, her memories modified.
